UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Sutton commissioned specialist programme management for the initial phase of its Social Care Systems Transformation Programme. The work is to lead programme delivery, with a focus on the systems transformation needed to support social care. It is a professional consultancy service rather than a purchase of software or equipment. Delivery is in Sutton, in the London Borough of Sutton. The contracting authority is the borough council. The procurement covers one lot and relates to business and consulting services.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Sutton used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. CORNESS CONSULTANCY LTD was selected as the supplier. The contract was signed on 2 February 2026 and runs from 2 February to 1 May 2026. Its gross value is £46,800. The award is for services and relates to the single lot. The available procurement details do not set out a separate scoring or evaluation basis beyond the direct award route.

This award shows Sutton’s demand for specialist programme leadership to deliver social care systems transformation, particularly at the initial programme stage. A credible supplier for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate programme management capability in complex systems change and an understanding of social care delivery in a local-authority setting. The work is focused on leading implementation, rather than simply supplying technology, so experience coordinating stakeholders, managing delivery risks and keeping a transformation programme on track would be relevant. The awarded contract was a short, specialist consultancy engagement, suggesting suppliers should be able to provide experienced leadership at focused scale. The council used a below-threshold direct award without competition for this purchase.
